PS5 and PS5 Pro Black Friday deals 2026: What to realistically expect
Wondering if the PS5 Slim or PS5 Pro will go on sale for Black Friday 2026? Here is what to realistically expect on console prices, bundles, games, and controllers.
Black Friday 2026 may not bring standalone PS5 Slim or PS5 Pro deals, but gamers can expect price reductions on game-bundled consoles, controllers, and PlayStation Store promotions. Last year's Black Friday event was a success for Sony, with significant discounts on almost all PS5 models. However, this year, Sony raised U.S. retail prices due to a global RAM shortage and supply chain pressures, making standalone discounts unlikely.
The PS5 Slim starts at $599.99, the PS5 Slim Disc Edition at $649.99, and the PS5 Pro at $899.99. Standalone discounts on the Pro are practically nonexistent as it is already sold out in most U.S. stores. The best deal to be found may be during Black Friday week if Sony decides to offer game bundles. For those willing to pay less, certified refurbished PS5 Slim models are available for $100 less than new units, starting at $499.99.
Sony's digital holiday promotion began on November 4 and will run until November 30, offering up to 75% off various PS5, PS4, and PS VR2 games, expansions, and DLC.
